"Tom was great. As his job proceeded there were plumbing problems, but he worked around the plumbers. His price is fair, he was dependable, clean, and respectful of my house. I have another drywall project and I plan on hiring Tom again."

"I hired PV Painting to paint and do some drywall repair on the interior walls of my home. Petar, the owner, did an outstanding job. He arrived on time every day. He took great care of my home. He covered my furniture and floors before starting work. He used good paint products. He cleaned up at the end of every day. He left matching paint for us; a very nice touch. Petar's skills in painting and drywall are exceptional. I could easily see Petar takes great pride in his work. He was friendly and professional in all my dealings. I did end up adding more work to my project while he was here and he graciously accommodated me. I really appreciated that. I would not hesitate to hire him again!"

"Roger was great! He did some drywall ceiling repair from a roof leak. He kept in touch while awaiting for payment from the roofing company. He arrived when he said he would. Meticulous workmanship and very personable. I will call on Roger next time I need a project completed."

"I couldn?t be happier with the work! They did an excellent job finishing my stairs, laying down flooring, and patching the drywall. Their work was neat, professional, and completed with great attention to detail. Everything turned out great, and I?m very happy with how everything looks. If you?re looking for a reliable handyman who takes pride in his work, I highly recommend them. I would definitely hire them again for future projects!"

"Tony has helped us with so many projects around our new home. Incredible molding work, dry wall repairmen, painting rooms & kitchen island, installing new floors. We are hoping to work on wainscoting our powder room next. There isn?t much this man cannot do, and we are grateful to have him be our renovation project lead."

Drywall FAQs, answered by experts

Drywall texture refers to the techniques used on the surface of drywall to create a pleasing visual or tactile effect. Depending on your desired outcome, drywall texture can range from incredibly subtle to a focal point of a room. Textures play a significant role in interior design and are an excellent and relatively cost-effective way to change the feeling of a room.

Technically speaking, you can use drywall primer over plasters. However, oil-based primers work the most effectively on wall plasters. Meanwhile, water-based primers work just as well with drywalls. Nowadays, there are also universal primers suitable for drywall and plaster. Overall, you will be fine as long as you are using a trustworthy brand.

Yes, professionals often repair minor wall openings made for insulation injection to restore the surface.

While it’s most common to sand plaster dry, it is possible to wet-sand plaster, too. Doing so can reduce the amount of plaster dust released into the air and make it easier to work in smaller, more delicate areas (such as around wall trim). However, some people find that wet sanding leads to more imperfections, which is why larger walls are more often dry sanded to ensure an even finish.

Whether you need drywall anchors depends on your specific project, particularly where you are hanging an item. Drywall anchors are not necessary if you can drive a screw directly into a wooden stud behind the wall, as the stud provides sufficient support. However, since studs are not present everywhere in a wall, you will need to use drywall anchors if you are hanging an object in a location without a stud. For very lightweight items, picture hanging strips can also be a suitable alternative.
